Good spread of food staff were friendly and helpful ensuring I had a down stair table as I use two walking sticks the big red bus brought back memories it was also good to get a photo stop seen parts of Edinburgh we have never seen before. Hope the LEZ that's coming in want effect this experience.

Red bus afternoon tea

Good day had by my wife and I.

Lovely way to spend a wet day!

We enjoyed a delightful, freshly prepared afternoon tea with a glass of prosecco while touring around Edinburgh in an old double decker bus. The food was delicious and the journey enjoyable

Great afternoon

First time on this bus, great service from all staff, very polite, food was fab! Nice tour of Edinburgh, got a table to ourselves which was good didn’t have to share. Got a toilet break and an other break to take photos.

A lovely experience & highly recommended.

My daughter and I had a great time on the vintage bus tour. The bus was a beautiful vintage London red bus, time was given to take photos and even get a shot of sitting in the driver's seat. Hostess Demi and driver Ricky were really friendly, welcoming and it was a lovely smooth trip around the city. Demi also gave some interesting info on some of the sights and locations. The food and drink provided was really nice and there was a good selection of sandwiches and cakes. Many thanks.

Lovely sandwiches, scones and cakes.

Gail stocks

The best day I’ve had in a long time

The red bus bistro tour was absolutely brilliant the food was beautiful scones were deelish Prosecco was so tasty the staff were all so friendly & helpful bus driver was so nice too cannot thank them all enough we will be back on the tour maybe do Glasgow next time thanks to Alison & her team xx

Buzzing Bus

We had a great time enjoying the gift I received for a milestone birthday. We were made to feel special, despite not receiving an email advising of a change of time :( The food was nice and took account of advised allergies. Staff were amazing, very friendly and helpful. Our fellow passengers were in party mood and it was easy to join in, with smiles, laughs and singing all round! Tour is for 1.5 hrs, but sat for 1/2 hr so use this time to eat and drink before it moves.

Great afternoon tea experience

Really enjoyable experience which I would definitely recommend.

Sparkling afternoon tea

Great day out food so fresh and excellent service from the staff will definitely go again

quirky day out

trip went well no complaints but not the best value for money you don't see much of Edinburgh but fun 90 minutes . downside cramped seating no toilet and cold

Afternoon tea on vintage red bus tour

What a fantastic time we had on bus 2, lots of entertainment provided by Stuart our driver, it was afternoon tea with a difference being on a bus

Nice day out

Had a lovely day out , food was nice and so were the staff . I would definitely recommend this

Fabulous Treat

The bus stop was easy to find, the staff were welcoming and attentive throughout the tour. Food was great and the tour of Edinburgh was delightful. We have done this in London too and would recommend to anyone looking for a fun 1.5 hours.

Not a good start but got sorted

We were given the wrong information for the pickup point. Arrived early and began to get concerned as no bus appeared. Made some enquires and eventually found out that we needed to be at St Andrew’s Place, not Waterloo Place. Made a mad dash to find the bus still there, even though we were late! They were very apologetic. Also the dietary requirements had been over looked but he again was very apologetic and it was soon rectified. That said we had a very enjoyable trip.

Lovely idea with the old bus, perhaps some tour guidr info of landmarks along the way would have been good. Staff friendly and helpful.

Afternoon tea

Bus experience was really lovely, staff were lovely, very crampt at front of bus for two people. Cakes, scones lovely. Sandwiches were very poor display, dried out bread falling apart

George Taylor

Disappointing

Website information inaccurate on where the bus left from. If you were disabled you would never have found the bus in time. Couldn’t hear the commentary for a wedding group on the bus. Commentary was limited. Food presentation could be better. Not good value for money. Bistro implies high standard which it wasn’t. Staff pleasant and tried hard to entertain passengers which was not what we went for. If a company can’t get the information on line correct about where the bus starts. Not good.

Had high hopes for this tour but sadly didn’t live up to our expectations. Didn’t seem very organised. Food was low quality and staff were not very professional or clean properly. Nothing spectacular on the tour to look at . Quite disappointing

First there was an administrative muddle so they were not expecting us so several phone calls took place before we were allowed to join. The tea was nice but there was no guide to tell us where we were. Unless you knew the city the route was pointless. The very nice lady who served us explained that she wasn’t a guide and pointed out 3 landmarks but for visitors to Edinburgh it was a waste of time.

Not as expected

Sadly the experience didn't live up to the description. The tour left half an hour late as the hosts were setting up. Food was quite below par. I appreciate it is not easy serving on a moving bus. I feel I couldn't recommend this experience.

Didn’t happen

Wasted 50 minutes waiting at the place we were told to pick up. Bus never appeared. No number to call so emailed to be told we’ll get back to you in 1 to 2 days. Complete farce!

"It's so stress-free and everything is arranged to your liking." - Roisin Mcallister

This is it, simply one of the finest sightseeing tours on the planet. Yes, Island beach tours might be hotter, the guides might be snobbier, and the sights more sun-shiny but we're pretty darn sure that no tour ever tasted so good!

Edinburgh is such an incredibly historic city, home to the world's largest arts festival, producer of world-famous inventions (television, refrigerator, bread toaster, flush toilet) and was once the home to Burke and Hare, the infamous body snatchers. These days the locals are much more welcoming with a cup of tea, cake, cocktails and more. But this isn't just any old cup of Rosie, heavens no! This fabulous cuppa is almost as artistic as the Fringe Festival itself.

The tour takes place aboard an old red, Routemaster Bus heading passed world-famous sights such as Edinburgh Castle, Palace of Holyrood House, the Scottish Parliament and the Royal's Edinburgh residence. A fabulous mix of great taste, wonderful culture and an onboard cocktail cart.

You'll be welcomed aboard the bus with a refreshing glass of prosecco. All the girls can get comfortable at one of the tables, then tuck into a selection of hen-tastic treats;

• Delicious finger sandwiches
• Warm mini quiches
• Petite fours
• Selection of cupcakes
• Warm scones with whipped cream & jam
• Choice of tea or coffee
• Selection of different teas
• Gin cocktail or 'pot-tail' (that's funky cocktails served in a teapot)

Please note, the sightseeing tour is open to the public, however the bus can be hired exclusively by groups of 15 or more.

The Best Things to Do in Edinburgh on a Couples Trip

1. relax on portobello beach.

Portobello Beach is just a short bus ride away from the city center. It’s located in the coastal suburb of Portobello which is home to a charming promenade, several restaurants, and a Victorian swimming pool. 

Edinburgh can get pretty busy, so Portobello Beach is the perfect place to just kick back and relax. Here, you can head out for a swim, relax on the sandy shores, or take a romantic stroll along the promenade. 

You’ll also want to visit Civerinos Slice as this place serves the most delicious pizza. Opt for takeout; you can enjoy it on the beach while watching the sunset. 

2. Wander around Edinburgh Castle 

Edinburgh Castle is one of the city’s most popular tourist attractions and it’s not hard to see why. It’s set right in the center of Edinburgh and is one of Europe’s oldest fortified places, as the castle is estimated to be over 900 years old.

You’ll find plenty of things to do in Edinburgh for couples, but learning about this castle’s history should be at the top of your list. 

There are audio guides available when visiting Edinburgh Castle, or you’ve got the option of heading there with a guide. Many tours include a fast-track ticket too, so you’ll be able to skip the line. 

3. Hike up to Arthur’s Seat for sunset 

There’s nothing more romantic than watching a sunset together, and Arthur’s Seat is one of the best places in Edinburgh for this! 

Arthur’s Seat is the highest point in Holyrood Park and is actually an ancient volcano. From here, you’ll be treated to panoramic city views, which are best enjoyed at sunset, one of the most romantic times of the day.

It takes around an hour to reach Arthur’s Seat so make sure you time your hike accordingly. There are a couple of routes up, but starting from Holyrood Palace is a popular option.

No matter which route you take, just don’t miss out on this experience! 

4. Visit Camera Obscura and World of Illusions

You’ll find plenty of things to do in Edinburgh for couples, with Camera Obscura being a great option. Home to five floors and over 100 illusions, this is the perfect place to visit if you’re after a fun activity together.

5. Relax at one of Edinburgh’s quirky bars 

If you’re looking to enjoy some quality time together and reminisce on your trip, then make sure you head to some of the city’s funky bars. 

The Cauldron is one of the top options as you’ll get to brew your own cocktails, and you’ll be given a robe and wand (Harry Potter vibes). You’ve also got Panda & Sons which is a speakeasy-style bar.

Other popular bars in Edinburgh include The Devil’s Advocate , Frankenstein , The Banshee Labyrinth , and The Cocktail Geeks .

As you can see, there are plenty of options so why not do a bit of a bar crawl during your time in the city?

You’ll also find a variety of unique craft stores here, making this area the perfect place to visit if you’re after a souvenir or two.

8. Enjoy afternoon tea in Edinburgh   

If you’re after a cozy activity then why not enjoy afternoon tea as a couple? This is an especially great activity on a rainy day, and as you’re in Scotland, there will be plenty of them. 

Popular venues that offer afternoon tea include The Ivy on the Square , The Dome , Mimi’s Bakehouse , and Tigerlily . However, there are lots of others too if you’d like to shop around.

You can even have afternoon tea at Edinburgh Castle if you’re after a more unique experience, or opt for the Red Bus Bistro , where you’ll get to enjoy city views while you dine.

9. Head out on an underground ghost tour 

There are plenty of fun things to do in Edinburgh for couples, but why not head out on a spooky underground tour too?

What you may not know about this city, is that there are underground vaults located below Edinburgh, and these date back to the 18th century. In fact, many of these vaults are thought to be haunted, so be prepared for a bit of adrenaline! 

This underground ghost tour lasts just over an hour and allows you to explore the city’s underground vaults, Greyfriars Kirkyard, and the Old Town’s hidden alleyways. You’ll also get to hear about some of Edinburgh’s haunting ghost stories.

Just be aware that this place can get pretty busy if the weather is pleasant! 

12. Go on a sightseeing cruise  

You’ll find plenty of romantic things to do in Edinburgh for couples, but one of the best activities is heading out on a sightseeing cruise.

Thanks to the city’s location, you can explore the Firth of Forth on a cruise, which is quite relaxing.

This Firth of Forth sightseeing cruise lasts for 1.5 hours and will offer you scenic views of three bridges, the city skyline, and Inchcolm Island. You’ll also have onboard commentary during the tour, so you’ll get to learn about Edinburgh and the surrounding area as you go along! 

13. Head to the Scotch Whisky Experience Tour 

There’s nothing more Scottish than trying some of the country’s whisky. Whisky distillation has been taking place in Scotland since 1494, and there are lots of popular brands to choose from.

Luckily, there are plenty of awesome whisky tours in Edinburgh! One of the most popular options is Holyrood Distillery, although there are plenty of other choices too.

15. Relax in Princes Street Gardens

No trip to Edinburgh is complete without wandering around Princes Street Gardens. These gardens are some of the most beautiful in the city, and it’s certainly worth spending an hour or two relaxing here. 

Princes Street Gardens have been around since 1820 and cover an impressive 37 acres. Overlooking the gardens is Edinburgh Castle, and you’ll get fantastic views of this iconic landmark from below. 

There’s also a cafe within the gardens if you’re looking to pick up a small bite to eat or a drink. Or this is another great picnic spot if you’re on a budget!
